The Edmonton Oilers (13-9-2) will wrap up their three-game road trip against the Vegas Golden Knights (15-7-3) on Tuesday night and hope to emerge victorious over their Pacific Division rivals so they can extend the team’s current three-game winning streak.
Edmonton won 4-3 over Utah and 4-1 over Colorado on their current road trip and take on a Golden Knights roster that is coming off a 6-0 loss to Utah in a lopsided game on Saturday.
The Oilers have a 7-2-1 record in their last 10 games, averaging 3.9 goals per game and 2.7 goals against per game. In that time frame, captain Connor McDavid has scored nine goals and added 12 assists.
